Synopsis

With a poets eye for place, light, and the spiritual dimensions of everyday existence, Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese crafts a meditation on the concept of homeland and a transcendent elegy for what is lost in the name of progress. Grieving and alone following the deaths of her husband and children, elderly Mantoa (Mary Twala Mhlongo, in a soul-shaking end-of-life performance) prepares for her own death and to be buried alongside her ancestors. When plans for a new dam near her village in the landlocked kingdom of Lesotho threaten to literally wash away all she holds dear, Mantoa takes a last stand, mobilizing her neighbors to fight for their land and their way of life. The experience of watching Moseses visionary, much-lauded This Is Not a Burial, Its a Resurrection is as timeless and elemental as the land itself.DIRECTOR-APPROVED TWO-DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES 2K digital master, approved by director Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese New audio commentary featuring Mosese and producer Cait Pansegro
